Cultural relevance

I came across this article last week online and wanted to bring it up for discussion on SharperIron because it seems like a lot of our responses to allegations or cases of abuse / rape are done ‘on the fly’ as we become aware of them. There are a lot of interesting points and tidbits here, so I wanted to share it with you all and see how we can develop a much better and more holistic approach to abuse, especially how we approach the victims of abuse and their families.

It used to be considered a Baptist Distinctive: The Bible is the only rule for faith and practice.

It seems from some recent discussions that this foundational principle has been thrown under the bus of Culture.

Is the Bible sufficient to guide Believers today?

Are there sufficient Scriptural statements, principles and precepts to judge culture, movements within Christianity, music, Christian Character, doctrine as well as doctrinal deviation?
